AFTER THE GAME

AFTER THE GAME, by Indonesian artist Hardibudi, offers a satire of the modern world by freezing water polo athletes at the edge of a pool, lined up and expressionless like a choreographed routine. This image, from the Water-Polo Training Center series and inspired by their training at the 2018 Asian Games, engages with Pop Art and Andy Warhol's screen prints through its use of primary colors and a repetitive effect that flattens forms. The palette, dominated by 50 shades of blue and touches of yellow, lends the scene an abstract strangeness while evoking Asian culture and the world of sports. A limited edition, this large-format art photograph invites reverie and contemplation, providing an elegant and narrative decorative presence that speaks to the "aftermath" and what our society can be after the moment of performance.  ...
